WHAT IS LOVE?

Here are someones thoughts on love (by Taylor Mali from "What Learning Leaves") - and I LOVE those thoughts on love, a very special love. I do not know if I might post this here, so if I offended I should apologize and take this down immediately - but in the meantime please enjoy, it is so LOVEly!

First of all, it’s a big responsibility,
especially in a city like New York.
So think long and hard before deciding on love.On the other hand, love gives you a sense of security:
when you’re walking down the street late at night
and you have a leash on love
ain’t no one going to mess with you.Because crooks and muggers think love is unpredictable.
Who knows what love could do in its own defense?

On cold winter nights, love is warm.
It lies between you and lives and breathes
and makes funny noises.Love wakes you up all hours of the night with its needs.
It needs to be fed so it will grow and stay healthy.

Love doesn’t like being left alone for long.But come home and love is always happy to see you.
It may break a few things accidentally in its passion for life,
but you can never be mad at love for long.

Is love good all the time? No! No!
Love can be bad. Bad, love, bad! Very bad love.

Love makes messes.
Love leaves you little surprises here and there.
Love needs lots of cleaning up after.Sometimes you just want to get love fixed.
Sometimes you want to roll up a piece of newspaper
and swat love on the nose,
not so much to cause pain,
just to let love know Don’t you ever do that again!

Sometimes love just wants to go out for a nice long walk.
Because love loves exercise. It will run you around the block
and leave you panting, breathless. Pull you in different directions
at once, or wind itself around and around you
until you’re all wound up and you cannot move.

But love makes you meet people wherever you go.
People who have nothing in common but love
stop and talk to each other on the street.

Throw things away and love will bring them back,
again, and again, and again.But most of all, love needs love, lots of it.
And in return, love loves you and never stops.

What a beautiful dog! Yael, you reminded me of Lynne who passed away years ago. I loved to be welcomed back by her dashing to me when I came home and to be gently nuzzled when I’m sad. Sometimes her love never gave me a break, that is also a sweet memory. In fact, there would be no more loyal friend than a dog.

Shalom, my brother and Daphi always have been best friends. I remember once Daphi jumping into the sea full of care because she thought that Yaron got trouble in the water....Such a good dog (and such a nice brother) Tanja

WELCOME! BRUCHIM HABAIM! ברוכים הבאים

My name is Yael, I live in Israel, and I am pleased to meet you!

This blog is about art and craft, and about sewing. There will be stories from traveling. I will tell a little bit about myself, and about my family. I will mention my wonderful friends. I shall introduce our beloved four legged companions. And I would like to talk about nature. And about sun and rain and flowers and trees, and the sea and the desert - about the beauty, the history, the ancient places and the views of the Land of Israel, and about its people.

If you want to know a little bit more about me, go down to the February 2010 posts.
